With autumn coming to an end many 'would be' photographers, people like me, who walk about with camera in hand as though it were a permanent appendage, sometimes feel that Mother Nature is now letting them down and that there is no longer anything to photograph outdoors to be used as blog fodder photos.
Well think again.
Now you just need to search for it.
Look at a bush and zoom in.
Use your camera's macro capabilities.
Get right up close....
then press the shot button part way and allow the lens to focus on what it is you want to hilite in your photo.
Once it focuses... compress the button all the way and grab your opportunity. CLICK!
You see, beauty abounds.
If you don't see it then you are not looking close enough.
Look again.
It's there for you.
What? Not the shot you had hoped for?
Then edit it with something free and easy like PicMonkey online.
No, you don't download anything.
You go to their website and upload the photo you want to play with and save it when it looks the way you want it to.
Another option this time of the year is to move indoors.
Set a plant in front of an old coffee pot, or a new coffee pot.
Now get up nice and close and let the camera do it's focus magic and click!
Now move to the side and press the button again. Just a little bit different view and CLICK.
Upload 3 or 4 different shots to PicMonkey and create a collage.
You don't need to be a famous or fabulous photographer or buy a super duper expensive camera. Simply work with what you have and let an online editor do the work for you.
You'll be receiving compliments on your blog immediately.
I promise!
Have a perfect SUNDAY!!

Compliments!
Oh, Great! One more thing my OCD will force me to do when I should really be clearing brush or working on the remodel. Now can you convince Lee it is required for a decent blog?
They all look great. And you're so right, if you can't find something to take a picture of you just aren't looking hard enough
Oh there's always something to photograph out there ! I have never used Pic Monkey will have to check it out . Wonderful photos ! Have a great day !
There is always beauty.
You are so right, just look closer.
Great job with your "blog fodder".
